Aresty Rutgers Undergraduate Research Journal (RURJ)
Aresty Rutgers Undergraduate Research Journal (RURJ)
The Aresty Rutgers Undergraduate Research Journal (RURJ), in affiliation with the Aresty Research Center, is an undergraduate-run, interdisciplinary journal designed to showcase the cutting-edge undergraduate research conducted at Rutgers University.
Peer Review Research
Our mission is to provide undergraduate researchers the opportunity to publish their own work and experience the peer review process. In our review process, researchers implement multiple rounds of revisions based on peer reviews from undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty. An extension of our mission is to offer a unique educational program for students to learn about and gain hands-on experience with peer review.
Read the Journal
We are pleased to announce the release of the fifth issue of the Aresty Rutgers Undergraduate Research Journal (RURJ).
Read about the diverse research being done by undergraduate students across Rutgers, including classifying different eras of Fall Out Boy using logistical regression, determining the impact of DNA analysis on Native American Grave Protection and Repatriation, designing antimicrobial peptides for activity against P. aeruginosa infections, and more.
The RURJ Program opened my eyes to many of the different factors that go into the reviewing and publishing process, knowledge that has shaped not only how I approach peer review but also how I think about inquiry in science and the humanities. I would recommend it to anyone interested in pursuing a research career!

Rutgers Student Helps Launch Undergraduate Research Journal
Frederric Kelada spent his four years at Rutgers in constant motion: He was a teaching assistant for a physics class, a researcher in a neuroscience psychology lab, and a volunteer for a crisis response team on campus.
Yet on top of all that, he managed to cofound the first undergraduate research journal at Rutgers to publish student papers from any academic discipline.
